For context I’m not a photographer and never owned a dedicated camera. But I’m going to Iceland this summer and want to make a photo book of the pics I take. Do you think the zv1 would be good for someone like me or will my iPhone suffice?
Good day! I feel the ZV1 is a better choice for your trip if you plan on taking a lot of pics. It's better than the iPhone because of it's versatile focal length, multiple apertures and natural background blur for great portrait or closeup shots. Its fairly easy to use on auto mode, or if you have the time, learn how to use the shutter and aperture modes for more control over motion and background focus. I know you mentioned you will use it mostly for pics but it does make a great video or vlogging camera. Some people like to record themselves and others when traveling so it's good to have that option. Of course the downside is you have to carry another device with you, but its light, easy to carry and pull out of a bag to use. It starts up really quick, just open the lcd display and start taking pics. If you're looking for a compact camera mostly for photography, can I suggest the Sony RX100 series? The ZV1 shares many components from that line. These are better suited for photography compared to the ZV1 and even offer a viewfinder to see clearer in bright environments. You could start off with a used one for your trip if you're still wondering if it's worthy to upgrade to a digital camera. The iPhone has it's advantages over the ZV1 and similar digital cameras such as having a larger display and being extremely easy to take pics and vids. Plus you can post/share them instantly online. But it produces pics and vids with a "smartphone look" and doesn't age well. For a photo book, making prints, things you will physically hold and share with others long term, the ZV1 or RX100 series is the better choice. I hope I was able to answer your question!
Depends on how much you want to lug around. I don't think the benefits of the ZV-1 are worth it vs a cellphone. If you bother to take a camera, a better camera would be the first decision. A modestly larger and more competent camera could well be worth it, depending on your skills and patience.
